Riley/Raley - Shepherd
I am trying to locate a John Riley born abt 1787 NC was married to a Catherine born abt 1795 MD.This family travelled thru OH becaue they had a son James Riley born
born abt 1819 and who married a Sarah A. Shepherd in Tippecanoe, IN.They had a John Riley JR born 1821 IN, married to a Susannah Shepherd. William Riley born abt 1825 OH or IN.Daughter Vesta Ann born abt 1829 married a Davis Foster in Clay Co, IL. John & Catherine had two more sons born in IN.One was a Marion and I can not recall the name of the other.John Riley SR with Vesta Ann & Davis Foster & Marion and the sixth Riley left Clay Co, IL, abt 1849
heading west.They settled in Linn Co, KS.We have an unusalhistory in that the three Riley men married three Shepherd women.Would appreciate an assistance.Thanks.
